Hello, hope you are good. Sorry for late reply. Wax is the natural process which comes from ceruminus gland. When it accumulated in the canal it may give you pain. Not to worry continue using waxol or any wax dissolvent if ENT doctor said that was is there after otoscopic examination. Also for pain use pain killers for few days then make it clean with the doctor only. Please don't try to clean yourself. Thank

Next Steps

after wax cleaning can do Impedance Test to check middle ear issue.
